Ukraine-Russia war latest: Russian missile kills one and injures 57 in Kharkiv while Kyiv signs outline of Trump minerals deal
A Russian missile strike on Kharkiv has killed one and injured at least 54 others, including a child, officials in Ukraine have said.
The deadly overnight attack comes just a day after Russian forces launched a massive drone attack on the southeastern Ukrainian city of Dnipro, killing three people, including a child, and wounding dozens.
Amid rising attacks on his country, Volodymyr Zelensky has accused China of supplying weapons, including gunpowder and artillery, to Russia in fresh allegations of Beijing’s involvement in Moscow’s war in Ukraine.
“We have finally received information that China is supplying weapons to the Russian Federation,” Mr Zelensky said yesterday. “We are ready to speak in detail about this,” Mr Zelensky said, citing Ukrainian security and intelligence agencies.
China has not issued a response to the Ukrainian wartime president’s recent claims, but it has consistently denied arming Russia.
This comes as Ukrainian officials announced they have signed an outline of a minerals deal with the US and said a final accord could be reached by the end of next week.
